在加拿大


Federal health officials have confirmed six cases of human swine influenza in British Columbia and Nova Scotia and are warning more cases are likely in the near future, as medical personnel around the world test for the virus linked to a serious outbreak in Mexico. Federal Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq said at a news conference in Ottawa on Sunday that two people from B.C. and four from Nova Scotia had "relatively mild" symptoms of H1N1 swine flu and have since recovered. "But these cases are likely not the last we'll see in Canada," she said. Aglukkaq urged Canadians to take certain precautions to prevent the human-to-human transmission of this strain of swine flu by washing their hands with hot water and soap, covering up their mouth and nose when sneezing, and staying home and contacting their family physicians if ill, particularly those who recently visited Mexico and have flu-like symptoms. Health officials also advised Canadians to get flu shots as well as visit www.fightflu.ca and www.voyage.gc.ca for more information. Aglukkaq said she is in regular contact with her provincial counterparts as well as the World Health Organization, and has ordered the Public Health Agency of Canada to alert border authorities, quarantine officers and other officials. "To have our first confirmed cases is of course troubling," said David Butler-Jones, chief public health officer of the Public Health Agency of Canada. "However, as the minister has said, we needed to be ready for this and we are." The agency is talking with drug manufacturers about a vaccine for this swine flu and is preparing information sheets that will be available at airports this week for people travelling to Mexico, Butler-Jones said. Earlier, Nova Scotia's chief public health officer, Dr. Robert Strang, said the National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg confirmed late Saturday that four young people in the province are recovering from "relatively mild" cases of the swine influenza H1N1 virus. Strang said the four are between the ages of 12 and 18 and all attend King's-Edgehill School in Windsor, N.S. However, only one of those students had been on a recent school trip to Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, headmaster Joe Seagram later told reporters. "I am very pleased to report that all four of those students are feeling very well and much better," Seagram said. "In fact all of the students who have been sick over the last few days are recovering nicely or have recovered completely." Seagram said the private school has a separate medical facility and students who are ill with the flu will be asked to go into isolation for seven days. Classes will continue as usual, but for now community activities on campus, as well as off-campus sports and field trips, will be curtailed, he said. Also, B.C.'s Centre for Disease Control confirmed cases of swine flu involving two people from the province who recently returned from Mexico. The centre's Dr. Danuta Skowronski said these are two separate and mild cases, both involving young men from the Lower Mainland.Ref:http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2009/04/26/mexico-swine-flu.html

我若不勇敢,谁替我坚强!回复: BC省两例猪流感被确诊!猪流感是什么症状? 有药物治疗吗?----环球华网 2009-04-26 02:10 问:什么是猪流感? 答:猪流感,是一种呼吸系统疾病,由猪体内的一种病毒引发。猪流感病毒经常是猪死亡的原因,但通常不杀死人类。 问:为什么人会得猪流感? 答:猪流感病毒通常不会感染人类。偶尔会发生,通常是那些直接接触受感染猪的人,如农场工人。“我们已经看到过去几年猪流感直接感染人的,在大多数情况下,这是来自直接猪接触者。但这次似乎不同。”流感专家与密歇根大学阿诺德蒙托博士说。 问:为何可以在人与人之间传播的?  答:在人与人之间传染的病毒案例中,可能都是以相同的方式形成季节性流感,通过咳嗽和打喷嚏的感染者。 问:猪流感是什么症状?  答:症状类似感冒发患者:如发烧、咳嗽、疲劳、食欲不振。 问:让墨西哥和美国患者感染的是相同的猪流感病毒吗?  答:疾控与预防中心称,墨西哥的病毒样本与美国的病毒一致。该病毒是一个来自北美的禽流感病毒和来自北美、欧洲和亚洲的猪病毒混合成的人类病毒。 问:是否有药物治疗受猪流感的人们?  答:有4种不同的药物在美国批准治疗流感,但这种新的病毒表现出抗药性。该中心建议使用的流感药物Tamiflu和Relenza。 问:通常的流感疫苗可以防止猪流感吗?  答:用于季节性流感疫苗将可能不会防止最新的猪流感病毒。因为那是给得猪流感疫苗的猪使用的而不是人类。 问:居在加州或德州的居民有什么特别注意的吗?  答:疾病预防控制中心建议常规的预防措施,防止传染病的传播:经常洗手,包括你的鼻子和嘴巴,避免与病禽密切接触人的接触。如果你是生病了,留在家里和限制与其他人接触。 问:是否不应前往墨西哥?  答:疾病预防控制中心没有警告美国人不前往墨西哥,但他们知道疾病,并采取预防措施,以防止感染,如洗手。 (资料来源:美国疾病控制和预防中心)
